venue that are not offered elsewhere- a HUGE bridal prep room, a grooms prep room with games, and several spaces that allow for multiple different layouts and floor plans. It was a beautiful place to get married, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about it.
We were lucky to find out about The Butterfly Room right when it first started taking bookings in early 2023 and to get to have our wedding there this past fall. As a working woods...
hop, it's an beautiful space with a lot of historic, industrial character inside and out. We loved that our wedding got to take place at a local small business that makes beautiful things and has a great sustainability and community ethos. We had a great experience working with the Sandtown Furniture team, who were communicative and helpful in figuring out what we could do with this space where there weren't a lot of previous examples to draw from!
We got so many positive comments on the venue from our guests and all our vendors were excited to be working there too. On the aesthetic side, it provides a lot of built-in visual interest with the weathered brick walls, the steel walls (which are magnetic and have a lot of decor possibility!), glass wall showing the woodshop equipment, the tree trunk displays, the "ruins" area in the back, the high ceilings, etc. We went with the add-on of having bistro lights hanging from the ceiling, which was definitely worth the money for the great ambience and beautiful reflections on the glass.
On a practical level, the space worked quite well for our event of approximately 140 people. The flow of guests arriving for the ceremony in the main space, then into the draped-off area for cocktail hour, and then back out for dinner and dancing was pretty quick and easy. The rooms at the back were great for gathering the wedding party and for storing our stuff. The valet service worked well for people driving and it was a quick and easy Uber/Lyft ride from Mt. Vernon where our hotels were.
My only tip for future brides would be to mind the Sandtown team's warning that the back part of the building is, of course, a real working woodshop that might have some dusty spots! I got lazy about watching my step and holding up my dress's train up and definitely tracked up some dirt when we were back there pre-ceremony -- but it was all part of the experience!

ions. For a rowdy group of 175, TBR was the perfect backdrop. 10/10 would party there again.
